Client Loading - Textures missing with previous Preferences.
« on: December 24, 2012, 09:39:50 am »
Resolution: 1280 * 768 (15:9) - Fullscreen : Disabled
Quality: Custom ( Low )
Quality - Lighting : ( Light Type = basic ; Shadow Enabled = Disabled ; Shawdow last split on terrain =  Disabled )

Problem:
Each Time , I load the game , I lost some textures ( I can see in the walls , Trees have No texture ( No Materials ), Town has no texture ( some is present )
If I need to avoid this , I have to change preference before logging ( change to low ) and Load the game.

On my computer Loading and leaving are not quick. Each time the game need to transfer something from server.

Thans for the answer.

Don't use "Lighting Type = Basic", it doesn't work as intended.

See this post for details.

After reading the post regarding the setting of basic lighting working incorrectly, I've decided on posting about using a workaround to avoid the missing material textures on objects. Please note I am using a low end system however I have got the game play relatively playable with the Basic Lighting setting.
To achieve this I perform the following steps:
- Start the game and at the log in screen, select option and check that Video - Quality is on any default quality setting (medium, high etc)
- Apply the changes if necessary. then quit game and restart (do not log in or changes wont apply)
- Once the game has started again, perform the log in and then once the game is loaded, then change the lighting setting from Advanced to Basic
- If the game crashes for whatever reason, the above steps need to be repeated again in exact order as they will now be on Custom setting
- If your able to change settings back to a default config before exiting the game, then AW can be immediately entered and changing Lighting to Basic can be done.
 Please note I'm using a low end system, not the system on my signature  ;)
